I think for us to say that, to say, "Well, this is what living things on Earth do," is a cop-out.

We should aim for the highest goals, even if they're unattainable.

I agree with that, but the moment we began using tools was the moment that we stood out from animals and have achieved some of the highest and greatest goals. Name me a animal that can light a fire (besides a Dragon) or make a freestanding house.

Haha! Asians =\= Haitians, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans or any of those other poorer countries. Most of the time they come here to get rich (often times illegally) which really brings the overall system down.

People said exactly the same thing about the Irish, the Chinese, the Italians, the Poles, the Germans...

Historically any group that immigrated in large numbers went through a period of being classed "undesirable" and accused of bringing down the country (usually by the descendants of the last big batch of immigrants...) And every time people come up with some kind of justification for why those prior waves of immigration (also made up of poor, uneducated, non-English-speaking, etc) were different or "better" than the current "threat."

PS please no one be offended if I don't get into a huge long debate about this. Lots going on right now.

When we meant by Asians in Canada, we pretty much meant the Chinese (as they, or rather "we" are the biggest visible minority and third biggest ethical group in Canada). Most of the Chinese I know who come here possess above average wealth than national standards and have some profession skill that would benefit the economy. There's probably some differences between the Canadian and United States immigration system if you really are expressing that Asians in general are bringing down the "overall system" down (I'm not sure if your still talking about education).

I'd rather not bring up racial issues here on SC2. You might have better luck at the Serious Discussion forums, though anything hateful being posted will probably not get you good reception from the staff (just a heads up). Ethical groups regarding to the United States are not really relevant to this forum.
